Abstract

During the evolution of industrial production, the factory has continually undergone changes. To some degree this has been due to the demand for an increasingly net-worked economy, but it has also been in response to new technological possibilities. This chapter describes the evolution of factories from Taylor’s concept of mass production to the changeable factory of today.
